This Tiny New EV Motor Cuts Weight And Size For Impressive Efficiency

  • China’s Geely has unveiled a new electric drive system that integrates just about all the hardware and software functions into a single unit.
  • The “Thunder” setup has 30% less high-voltage wiring and 15% less low-voltage wiring compared to conventional systems.
  • It weighs just 165 pounds but makes 328 horsepower. It’s also extremely efficient.

Despite the advantages over combustion, there’s still room for improvement in the electric car game, and China’s Geely wants to show everybody that it can lead the way.
